School Lunches

Our school is committed to healthy eating and works closely with parents and Surrey Commercial Services to ensure that children receive a balanced diet. From September 2014, all children in reception, year 1 and year 2 in state-funded schools in England will be eligible for free school meals. We are developing a 'School Food Plan' in order to prepare for this and to continue informing parents and children about healthy food options.

All our school lunches are provided by Surrey Commercial Services. Please visit their website from the link below to find out more.

School lunch money for Juniors is now £2.20 per day. Please pay on-line using scopay which can be accessed from the 'Parents' drop down list on the home page. You can also still pay by cheque payable to Surrey County Council, or pay by cash at the school office.

Free School Meals

Some families are eligible for Free School Meals which will ensure that children get at least one hot cooked meal a day.

The Facts:

registering is confidential

taking up the meal is recommended but is not compulsory

cashless payment systems for school food can be introduced to reduce the perceived stigma associated with free school meals

a child may receive additional help as a result of being registered, for example help with the cost of music lessons or school trips

registering a child for free school meals will bring more money to their school

If you get any of the following support payments your child may be entitled to receive free school meals:

Income Support

Income-based Jobseekers Allowance

Income-related Employment and Support Allowance

Support under Part VI of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999

the guaranteed element of State Pension Credit

Child Tax Credit (provided you’re not also entitled to Working Tax Credit and have an annual gross income of no more than £16,190)

Working Tax Credit run-on - paid for 4 weeks after you stop qualifying for Working Tax Credit

Universal Credit

Please come and talk to Mr Samuel if you would like further information about Free School Meals.

Packed Lunches:

A number of children from our school chose to have packed lunches. We regularly monitor the contents of these and will contact parents if we are concerned about the balance of different food stuffs. Please refer to the resources below for further information about healthy packed lunches and do not hesitate to come and have a chat with our staff if you have a question relating to lunches or any other aspect of our Healthy Schools agenda.

Please remember we are a NUT FREE SCHOOL. This is due to the number of children with severe allergies in our school community.
